Mahakali Caves in Mumbai

This Buddhist monastery is located in the eastern suburb of Andheri in the city of Mumbai (Bombay) in western India.^[2] The monument consists of two groups of rock-cut caves – 4 caves more to the north-west and 15 caves more to the south-east. Most caves are viharas and cells for monks, but Cave 9 of the south-eastern group is chaitya. Caves in the northwest have been created mainly in the 4th – 5th century, while the south-eastern group is older. The monument contains also rock-cut cisterns and remnants of other structures.
